Great addition. I didn't realize pc backs were that difficult in relation to these series as they are quite plentiful in other series. Were they a single year issue like the 62 and 63 stat backs?

Yes, 1955. And, there are two variations of the postcard back. There is also the Dad's Cookies, which is a bear. And the Pittsburgh Exhibits, with two variations. I owned the only card graded of one of them and now own one of three of the other. Wish I hadn't sold the one of one, but the price was right.
